The sprinkler system and
fire alarms at Lake Shore
Hospital will be upgraded in
the near future.
During Monday night's
Lake' Shore Hospital
Authority Board meeting,
board members unanimous-
ly authorized a 8339.599
budget for the project slat-
ed to improve the hospital's
third floor with complete
fire coverage.
The funding, earmarked
for the project includes 15
percent contingency and
administrative fees. The
money for the work will
be drawn from the Lake
Shore Hospital Authority
Board and the Shands
Corporation. ,
The bid for the project
was awarded earlier in
the year to J.L. DuPree
Construction, which was
the low bidder from four
companies who bid on the
project.
Lake Shore Hospital
Authority Board chairman
Jack Berry said 'the sprin-
kler system budget was
originally budgeted last

ed on Miller Terrace, just
off Main Boulevard.
Firefighters and police
officers responded to the
scene to discover that one
of the business' two air com-
pressors had exploded. The
structure that housed the
compressors a wooden

lean-to on the back side of
the building was com-
pletely destroyed and the
brick machine shop adjacent
to it also suffered external
and some internal damage.
Pieces" of wood from the
structure landed more than
50 feet away and a building
across the street revealed

damage apparently caused
by the flying debris.
Officials Monday night
said it remained unclear
what caused the air com-
pressor to explode and said
it could have been from a
number of reasons ranging
from faulty wires to the age
of the compressor.

Care Administration) stan-
dards," he said. "We're
upgrading the system to
meet those standards. It's
not something you can see,
but it is something for the
safety of the people in this
hospital."
Crews have been upgrad-
ing sprinkler and fire alarm
systems at the hospital
for the past three to four
years.
Shands Director 'of
Construction Services and
Facilities Development Ed
Lenhart said the work is
part of a five-phase project.
He said there were

some zbnes that had lim-'
ited sprinkler coverage, but
entire fire zones needed the
coverage.
"We took the patient care
areas and we sprinkled
those," he said. 'We didn't
do the administration and
physician areas because
that's the last thing we have
to worry about."
The hospital's fourth
floor, maternity care unit
and rooms, has complete
sprinkler coverage with a
new fire alarm system.
The third-floor patient
areas will be upgraded with

the sprinkler work and
when the work is complet-
ed, the next phase will be
upgrading sprinklers in the
second floor patient areas.
The second floor is com-
posed of an east wing and
west wing and officials plan
to upgrade the west wing,
the patient floor, first.
"The office area and the
labs are already sprinkled
because those are high
hazard areas," Lenhart
said. "Our concentration is
to take care of the patient
floors first and from there
we would finish the office
space."

from Columbia, Suwannee,
Union and Gilchrist coun-
ties who receive Christmas
Dream Machine gifts.
Cookie Murray, an event
organizer, said the event
benefits the Christmas
Dream Machine and serves
as one of the largest toy and
money collection events to
fund the Christmas Dream
Machine.
"Our goal in the future is
to be the largest," she said.
Murray said last year's
event drew more than 350
motorcycles.
"We would like to meet
last year's fund-raising goal,
which was about '$8,000,
plus toys. We have a sleigh

that we try to fill up every
year," she said, noting there
were at least 1,000 toys and
20 bicycles on the sleigh
last year.
Murray said she is expect-
ing about 300 motorcyclists
to participate in this year's
event.
"This year we are also
asking them to bring a
non-perishable food item
at Columbia County Cycles
for the food drive," Murray
said. "The ride is about 40
miles, throughout Lake
City, with a police escort
and people are welcome to
come out and watch. It's
important for local motor-
cyclists to participate in this
event because it's for local

kids. Everything we donate
stays right here in our com-
munity."
Every year for the last
three years, five local girl
scout troops have made
Christmas crafts at the mall
as part of the holiday scene
and this year the girl scout
troops agreed to the Dream
Machine challenge to col-
lect toys, too. The toys col-
lected by the girl scouts will
be delivered the same day.
Girl scout troops members
will be at the mall from
10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday
working on Christmas
crafts and collecting toys.
"Any child is welcome to
come to the mall and make
a craft," Murray said.

ARTIST: Christmas tree ornament for White House features Lake City.
Continued From Page 1A

for the White House hol-
iday display is an almost
19-foot Fraser fir from
North Carolina. On its
branches hang 369 decora-
tions submitted by artists
from around the country
- including Soto's.
Soto said the unex-
pected invitation came
from Congressman Ander
Crenshaw last summer.
"As I understand it, each
congressional member
could invite one artist from
within their district to cre-
ate an ornament that would
be hung on the 2008 White
House Christmas Tree,"
Soto said. "I was most hon-
ored to be picked and am
grateful to him and his staff
for the opportunity to par-
ticipate."

'Crenshaw said that he
was proud to have Soto
as the artist who created.
the Christmas ornament
representing Florida's 4th
Congressional District
"Duffy created a wonder-
ful scene of the St. John's
River that hangs in my
office," Crenshaw said.
"So when the White House
asked us to select an artist
to represent the district, I
could think of no one bet-
ter."
Soto said that he created
the ornament on behalf
of the people of North
Florida.
"I tried to produce a sea-
sonally 'happy' ornament
that sent best wishes from
our folks to all of America,"'
he said.

Soto said that the blank
ornament was supplied by
the White House whose
theme this year was "A
Red, White and Blue
Christmas."
"The art- could be com-
prised of whatever came to
mind but I was 'encouraged'
to offer something that rep-
resented the area," Soto
said. "Since Crenshaw's
4th district stretches from
Jacksonville to Tallahassee,,
I chose to include a scene of
Lake City on one side and a
scene of Jacksonville on the
other."
Soto said that he wanted
to include as many sur-
rounding communities as
possible.
-"It was necessary for me
to include the people of our

area and I wanted to send a
message that represented
all of us because we may
never get another chance to
send our greetings to all of
America," said Soto.
Soto said that it took him
almost a month to come up
with the there for the orna-
ment, but that he wanted it
to express greetings from
each individual's heart in
the 4th district.
The ornament reads,
"Merry Christmas America,
From the 'Hearts' of North
Florida."
"Once it's hung on the
tree, that message goes out
to all Americans from all of

us in the 4th Congressional
District," Soto said.
"I'm hoping that after the
holidays, the White House
will send the ornament
back and if they do, I will
donate it to Lake City for
their tree," he said.
Though Soto received an
invitation from First Lady
Laura Bush to attend an
artists' reception at the
White House on Dec. 2, he
declined.
"I have an aging Siamese
cat that requires constant
attention and feared that if
I got delayed at the airport
because of bad 'weather or

flight cancellations, it could
be a detriment to the cat,"
Soto said, adding that if any-
thing had happened to his
cat, it would .have marred
the memory of his trip.
"It wasn't as important
as taking care of my pet,"
he said.
Not that the impor-
tance of the honor is lost
on the artist. "I am most
grateful to Congressman
Crenshaw and his staff for
choosing me to produce
the ornament," Soto said.
"Obviously, it is a very high
compliment and one that I
do not take lightly."

Just a

little spat

among

friends

1On the face of
it, the rising
concern about
whether the
Obama transition
team will deliver just looks like
pre-inaugural jitters. But there
might be more to it than that
' One strident commentator
proclaimed Obama and his-
Latino surrogates would
be "held accountable" if
they failed to deliver. The
queasiness it stems from
might best be described as
the victors' disdain for the
scruffy issues (and some
of the people) that got their
candidate elected. While
Obama has been caught
red-handed saying immigration
is his first-year's priority, his
gatekeeper Rahm Emanuel is
famous for wanting to back off
the subject.
By making Emanuel his
first appointment, Obama sent
an off-tune message to some
of his loyal followers. It went
down like one of those Rev.
Wright sermons at High Mass.
So far the behavior might be
annoying but not a full-blown
slap, in the face. Still, it is
annoying.,
For instance, in some
Latino leadership quarters,
consideration of New
Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson
as heading up the State
,Department and instead, being
appointed to the Commerce
Department, is a little like
getting bumped from first class
to coach. It smacks a little like
an elder giving up a'seat on
the bus to a teenager. And this
too has a story behind it
As news that Richardson
could become Commerce
Secretary got around, a
petition supporting Wen Ho
Lee for the post was circulated
by University of California-
Berkeley professor Emeritus
Ling-chi Wang and several
Chinese Americans, gaining
some 80 signatures. Wen Ho
Lee had been a University of
California scientist at the Los
Alamos National Laboratory.
As Secretary of Energy
during the Clinton
administration, Richardson
revealed Lee's name to media
and accused him of stealing
nuclear secrets for China. The
60-year-old scientist went to
prison for nine months. But
after finding Lee innocent,
the presiding judge criticized
the accusation and said it
"embarrassed the entire
nation." President Clinton, the
presiding judge and the New
York Times apologized to Lee,
but Richardson did not.
Perhaps there was some
fallout to expect But tlhe
Washington Latino leadership
is chapped that all this was
kept under wraps. They were
not advised trouble might be
coming. Perhaps they could
have run interference.
So far, Obama's transition
team is filled with nearly 50
Latinos, all with impressive
credentials. Most of them will
end up in the administration.
But folks with a history in
Washington know that number
is window dressing. B-team
positions. Latino Washington
remembers that change didn't
start to happen until after the
second inauguration during
the Clinton administration.
Josi de la Isla, author of "The
Rise of Hispanic Political Power"
writes a weekly commentary for
Hispanic Link News Service.

The days have turned to
months and the months into
years. I still find myself
shedding tears. Wanna have
you here, Mother I miss you
so much, even though its
been '12 years'
We love and miss you.,

A Alopecia (baldness) is a common complication of
A.&chemotherapy. Many chemotherapy drugs work by affecting
how cells reproduce. A side effect of this can include mucositis
(mouth sores), diarrhea and alopecia (baldness). However, these
side effects are dependent on the specific drugs in use, and
not all chemotherapy patients experience alopecia during their
treatments

Melrose Park Elementary School
-After reading poetry and studying
the folk art of Mose Tolliver,
kindergarten students at Melrose
Park Elementary School have been
painting pictures of birds, snakes,
turtles, watermelons, and flowers.
They also have been using found
tools to dolor their paintings which
are very similar to Tolliver's folk art
First grade students completed
their, costumes for the Thanksgiving
play. Some students created Native
American vests, while others
decorated buffalo robes using a
variety of Native American patterns,
images and symbols.
Like kindergartners, second grade
students also have been studying the
paintings of Mose Tolliver. Students
focused on his buses and trolleys,
and after much discussion, students
created crayon resist paintings.
Students were very imaginative,
creating various artwork styles and
later reviewed a list of bus safety

rules.
Third grade students are working
on symbolism, while learning about
the folk art of Howard Finster. To
frame their art projects, students
are creating borders on which they
' will write explanations, or "Words
of Wisdom," to complement their
mixed media paintings.
Fourth and fifth grade students
have been watching an "Aesthetic
Moment" presentation. Afterward,
students reviewed the slides and
discussed each artist's style and
medium. They also critiqued
artworks by folk artists Harriet
Powers and Bill Taylor.
Fourth graders are completing
their animal studies unit. It has
been exciting to observe the Fiddler
Crabs, African Drawf Frogs and
Millipedes in their habitats. Some
students and their families have
graciously adopted some of these
animals. The next unit will be on
planets. In writing, students have
started narrative writing and
produced some creative stories.
